“Most birds were created to fly. Being grounded for them is a limitation within their ability to fly, not the other way around. You, on the other hand, were created to be loved. So for you to live as if you were unloved is a limitation, not the ot...

I’ve been a huge admirer of photography just as I am of many of the arts.

It’s not JUST in romantic love but it’s in loving my children, my grandchildren and the rest of my family. It’s also about loving my friends but more importantly it’s about loving myself.

It doesn't interest me what you do for a living
I want to know what you ache for
and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing.
It doesn't interest me how old you are

I often wonder, what the hell I’m waiting for? At my age, I feel pretty free to do whatever I want, so what’s stopping me?
It’s really a mystery I’ve been trying to solve for awhile. Sometimes I feel as if I am a turtle slow in crossing the stree...
